"Everything was great! The only thing I was disappointed about was the park ! It’s very outdated and there’s a park bench that is so rusted it could very well injury someone badly. We weren’t able to play out there ! I also thought the bath between the resort and the parking garage was so dark. It could use some light at night time !"

"We loved the Condo. The beach was closed because of Tropical Storm Bertha so we didn’t use the beach equipment provided but having the chairs, wagon, umbrella toys available was nice. The layout with two bedrooms and two baths worked really well for us and especially with bunk beds. We sat on the balcony often and the view was nice. Would highly recommend this unit."
